I am just OBSESSED WITH DIAMANT, KAGETSU AND ALFRED !!! Would you mind writing your morning after stories for them pls ? Or at least one of them, the one you prefer ! Have a nice evening ! :)

(WE ARE STARTING OUR FE ENGAGE STORIES WITH A BIG THREE PARTER!! ENJOY!!)

Alfred: For the golden retriever prince, waking up beside you is something that is jarring and enthralling. He’s practically over the moon, recounting the previous night’s events.

The whirlwind wedding, the joy on all your friends’ faces, and most importantly, the adoration that mirrored in your eyes just as poignantly as it did in his.

It was a magical day from start to finish, but the prince was far happier when he woke up and found you sound asleep beside him. He was practically shocked by it.

To think that he had actually married you. He confessed to you, you told him you loved him too, and…and how here you were…it made him start to freak out.

But it was a freak out in a good way. At least, that’s what he thought. Alfred smiled to himself, giddy and completely unsure of what he was going to do next. He reached out, brushing his fingers along your cheek, unable to fight the joy that swelled in his chest.

It was real…you were wearing his ring, he had the Pact Ring glittering on his finger, and you looked so, so cute when you were sleeping! He just wasn’t sure what he was going to do with himself.

He worries about waking you up, but then he remembers that it’s the Somniel; it’s rare you’d wake up on your own unless someone came in to rouse you with a loud but tasteful announcement.

Then he remembered that someone wakes you up every day.

Alfred, being the dutiful (new) husband that he is, quickly slips from the bed, wraps a sheet around his waist, and hurries to the doors to make sure they’re locked.

After all, it would be awfully inappropriate for the Divine Dragon to be seen so very, very exposed….and he wasn’t sure h ewanted any of his comrades to see him in such a state, either.

Satisfied that the door was firmly locked, Alfred nods to himself and turns on his heel to return to you.

At least, until he looks back at his new wife and discovers that you are awake and rubbing at your eyes.

“Oh, no!” Alfred eeks out, “You’re supposed to be sleeping!”

“You got out of bed.” You yawned, propped up on your elbow. Alfred’s shoulders drop and he returns to bed, falling face first onto the mattress by your legs.

“I was trying to make sure that nobody would come to wake you up, like usual!”

“Well, considering what day it was yesterday…I don’t think any of them would be silly enough to try.” You smiled softly, petting your sweet husband’s soft, blonde hair. “Maybe Clanne and Framme…Vander, even…but they’d figure it out pretty quick.”

“I-I know.” He blushed, peeking up at you, “I just…wanted to make sure! I’d be beside myself if somebody came in and saw you like this.”

“But you wouldn’t mind if they saw you?” You quirked an eyebrow, teasing. Quickly he pulled himself up on the bed, scrambling to correct himself.

“No, no, not at all!! I just meant that…I mean, you’re the Divine Dragon!! I’m a prince, sure, but you’re the Divine Dragon!”

“When it’s just the two of us, though…I’m just Alear.” You reminded him softly, “You’re not going to refer to me by that title all the time, are you? Even when we’re alone?”

Alfred buried his face in his hands. “This is not how I saw our first morning together going.”

You laughed, pulling him into your arms. As if he wasn’t already blushing enough; it was a different situation entirely when wrapped in the open (naked) embrace of his loving wife.

“No? It’s precisely how I saw it going.”

“That’s because you take great joy in messing with me.” He said with a sharp sigh, though there was no malice detectable. He instead relaxed in your embrace, resting his head against your chest.

“I guess I do tease you a little too much, huh?” You mused softly, “Should I go easy on you, today?”

“Maybe not the whole day. I doubt you could hold back that long!” He joked, relaxing in your arms as you laced your fingers into his hair, playing with the soft strands.

“You’re awfully gracious, Alfred. But I’ll behave myself. If only for today.” You promised to him, and your morning continued in the hazy beams of morning light, the beginning of your new life together starting off just as you both hoped (though with a little more messing around than expected).

------------------------------

Diamant: He is staring at you with a reverent fondness, drinking in every single detail. You, in kind, were privy to this when you first woke, though your eyes had remained closed for a long while.

It was strange to find him so conemplative, but it was clear that the adoration he held in his heart for you was unmatched.

The Pact Ring glimmered on his finger, adorned upon the hand that now held yours, linked together tightly in the soft light of dawn.

He is practically beaming at you; he is known for having the loudest laugh in the army, but among his closest family and loved ones, he is known for having the most precious of smiles.

The high prince of Brodia is a sight to behold, and one you haven’t been able to tear your eyes off of since the day you met. But ever since your wedding day nearly 24 hours earlier…well, let’s just say there’s nowhere you’d rather be looking.

“What are you thinking, Alear?”

“Me?” Your gaze flickers away from his, just for a moment. But quickly you return, albeit a little more shyly. “I just…nothing.”

“It must be something.” His finger hooks your chin, gently turning your attention fully back to his. “What’s going on in the great dragon’s mind?”

“Really, it’s…it’s nothing. I’m just…I was just thinking about how lucky I really am.”

At this, his eyebrows rose with great interest. “You’re the lucky one?”

“Of course I am…I mean, you’re the one who agreed to marry me.” You remind him, running a finger over the ring that glittered so handsomely on him.

Diamant shook his head, “If I recall correctly, I believe we proposed to each other. I’m not the only one with a ring on my finger.”

“Well, yes, but…you’re my husband now. I don’t think anyone else could ever be so lucky to call you their spouse.”

“And I could say the very same about you.” He countered, bringing your hand to his lips. You blushed at his sweet gesture, but it is no more intimate than the two of you lying there, quite bare beneath the thin sheets of the Divine Dragon’s bed.

“To think we have the rest of our lives together.” You sighed softly, snuggling into his side. Your hand fell to his chest, listening to the comforting thump of his heartbeat. “What are we going to do with ourselves?”

“I’m sure we’ll find plenty of ways to fill our time. Spending mornings like this is certainly an excellent start.”

You smiled up at him, earning a kiss on your forehead.

The morning was a sweet, joyous preview of what was to come. Only happiness awaited you, for the rest of your days.

------------------------------

Kagetsu: He was practically beside himself with glee, the morning after your first night together. He had always deeply valued your friendship, but when it blossomed into something more…oh, it was exquisite. And the fact that you reciprocated his feelings made him feel like the luckiest, happiest man alive.

Kagetsu’s family could not attend your wedding, but you did endeavor to spend your honeymoon with them. The wedding ceremony was lavish and festive, a more than welcome celebration after the hells you’d all gone through during the war against your father.

But now…all was at peace, and you were bonded with your lover for a life of eternal happiness.

The wedding ended late that night, and Kagetsu was glad to escort you from the Somniel to his hometown. Prince Fogado graciously offered the swiftest of Solm’s pegasi, and before long, you and your new husband were arriving at his secluded home.

His family did not know you were both there yet, though. That was by design; you wanted to spend your precious first moments with Kagetsu alone. Just the two of you, for a little while.

The rest of the world would be able to greet you on your debut later. But for that night, and the morning that had followed, it was just yours and Kagetsu’s little world.

A beautiful world that had the handsome swordmaster with his hair down and tousled, spilling all about his face whil he snuggled up to you.

“So…are we going to take the morning off only? Or are we going to take the whole day before we tell anyone we’re here?” You asked your husband, breaking the dreamy silence of the inn.

Kagetsu hummed, feigning deep thought, all while he nuzzled into your chest, wrapping his arms around you. To think your new husband was so clingy; it was utterly adorable.

“Well, at first, I thought it would be best to greet them right away. But now that the morning has come…is it wrong that I wish to spend the day with you all to myself? Just the two of us. Perhaps with the hot spring bath attached to the room…and in the dining room. They have excellent onigiri that you simply must try, here!”

You laughed softly, petting Kagetsu’s fluffy hair as he blurted out his plans as they came. “So I’ll take that as a yes, we are taking the day for ourselves?”

“I think so, yes.” He lifted his head to grin at you, giving you a soft squeeze. “I do not wish to spend my time with anyone else, today. Just the two of us…husband and wife!”

“And hot spring…and onigiri.” You added, making him chuckle. Kagetsu rolled over so that you were lifted on top of him, holding you gently at your rather exposed waist.

“I wish for you to experience my home, while we have this time to ourselves. It is a very special thing, getting to welcome you into my traditions. I hope that you will enjoy them; and if you do, I am excited to see such special moments between the two of us.”

“My, what a sweet talker.” You shook your head, tapping your fingertips along his chest. You could feel his little heartbeat pick up when he met your sparkling eyes. “Then, shall we get up and start our day? There’s much to be done, it sounds like.”

His grip tightened, pausing the dancing of your fingers.

“Perhaps…we can wait a little longer. I would like to enjoy the closeness with my sweet wife a little longer.”

“Only a little?”

Kagetsu swallowed thickly, the blush quickly blossoming across his face when your mischievous grin reappeared from the night before.

“If the lady wishes, I suppose we could take longer than ‘a little’.”

“I do wish it,” You kiss him sweetly, which was all he needed. “I want to thoroughly enjoy you, Kagetsu.”

The romantic morning was the perfect start to the rest of your precious marriage to Kagetsu. Eventually you were able to drag him out of bed, where he could show you the luxurious wonder of the hot spring bath, and the delight that came with the delicious riceballs he was so obsessed with.

His family was thrilled to meet you once you were able to peel Kage away from the inn. His nervousness at introducing you to the family was quickly replaced by how proud he was of his dear, dragon wife.

They were quick to welcome you, and you were even quicker to enjoyhis family and all the new world they had to offer you.

Truly, the two of you could not possibly be happier.

diamant, in most ways, tries very hard to be a perfect prince. and often comes close to that perfect prince ideal! but after reading some of his supports (and particularly his wakeup events), ive found i quite enjoy the interpretation of him as a bit of a doof. especially in romance.

so to explore that, i drafted up a little drabble following one of his A support wakeup events with alear. enjoy, if you’d like! but be warned i am writing this at nearly 4 am and i have not proofread in the slightest LOL so i apologize if it’s rough.

--- --- ---

Warm afternoon sunlight streams into Alear’s bedroom, bathing the space in gold. Despite the late time of day, he lies upon his bed fast asleep. A gentle breeze blows through the sheer canopy draped around him, sending strands of red and blue hair dancing in front of his unconscious face.

It’s a perfect picture of peace… Except for the fact that he’s not alone.

Mere feet away from the Divine one’s slumbering form stands another man, similarly fast asleep. His arms are crossed against his chest and his head lolls to the side. His brunette and crimson hair also catch in the breeze, sweeping across his forehead. Diamant snores ever so softly, but it’s eventually enough to stir Alear awake.

The dragon’s eyes flutter open, and he takes a moment to register the room around him. He makes note of the sun in the sky and stretches, pulling himself up to an upright position. It was probably high time he got up.

As Alear pulls himself to a seated position on his bed, he comes face to face with the heir to the Brodian throne. The surprise makes him yelp, and he flinches backwards. Having successfully broken the peace in the otherwise quiet room, Diamant too begins to stir.

“D-Diamant?” Alear squeaks, a splash of color rising to his cheeks. It wasn’t unusual for him to awaken with someone in his bedroom, but never before had that person also been asleep…! How long could Diamant have been standing there?

“Ah, Divine One! You’re awake!” Diamant exclaims as he shakes off the final dregs of sleep. His eyes are wide as they meet Alear’s, his own face turning a shade more flush. A sheepish smile begins to pull on Diamant’s mouth and covers his face with a hand. “Looks like I nodded off…”

When he finally brings his hand back down, it comes to rest over his heart. His eyes shut tight, Diamant offers the Divine one a small bow. “Thanks for waking me,” he adds with a bit of an awkward pause.

Alear can’t help the soft smile that overtakes his own face. The Diamant he had met back in the beginning of the war was very different from the man standing before him now. The Diamant he had gotten to know so much better recently. The Diamant who was strong and brave, but gentle and kind, too. And clearly, a bit of a doof.

“Anytime,” Alear replies, his voice warm with affection. “I should probably start repaying you all for the favor, anyway.” He laughs a bit, bringing a hand up to scratch at the back of his head.

“Ah, that won’t be necessary,” Diamant assures with a laugh of his own. He trails off in a yawn, one he fails to stifle entirely, and Alear’s smile falls.

“Tired?”

“Oh, no, I’m fine. Don’t worry yourself over me.” Despite Diamant’s reassurances, Alear’s frown persists. He knows all too well of the prince’s habit to stay up much too late into the wee hours of the evening with paperwork. Diamant was a caring and dedicated man. He worked hard for his kingdom, and in most cases, Alear found it incredibly admirable. But when it interfered with Diamant’s own well-being, he wasn’t so sure.

Alear regards Diamant carefully, pondering his next move. Then, without warning, he grabs onto the prince’s arm tightly.

“Divine- woah!” Diamant yelps as he’s yanked forwards. Relentless in his pulling, Alear manages to wrestle him onto the bed, and he falls besides the dragon. His shoulder eclipses Alear’s own, and once they both recover from their fit of giggles, they wiggle to readjust comfortably on their backs, arm to arm. The sound of sheets rustling makes Diamant turn his head and he comes face to face with the man beside him.

Alear’s mismatched eyes have always been a sight to behold for Diamant. It’s not often that he gets to gaze into them so closely. He soaks up the moment while he can.

“Hi,” Alear whispers in the small space between them. His breath puffs against Diamant’s face.

“Hello, Divine One,” Diamant returns, his own voice hushed. Unthinkingly, he brings a hand up to brush a few stray azure strands out of Alear’s face. The smile he reveals on the other’s face is gentle. Diamant’s heart, curiously, aches.

“How many times must I request you call me Alear, Diamant?”

“At least once more, Divine one. As always.” The prince feels something warm and soft prod at his hand. He opens it, allowing Alear’s fingers to intertwine with his own.

“…Alear,” Diamant says, after a time. It’s not a question. The dragon’s smile widens and he turns his head away momentarily, his cheeks a beautiful pink.

“Diamant. You should rest.” Alear’s tone is laced with concern, and Diamant frowns.

“I couldn’t. I came in here originally to wake you, after all.” How could he possibly get a wink of sleep when there was so much to be done? …Never mind that he had nodded off mere minutes ago. Better yet: how could he possibly calm his racing heart enough while lying here to fall asleep?

The sheets shift once again as Alear turns onto his side to better face the prince. With the bit of height leverage he has now, he stares down at Diamant disapprovingly. “I won’t take no for an answer,” Alear warns. The surprised look he receives brings a playful smile to his face.

“I…Um,” Diamant flounders for a response, his face beginning to burn. He had not been prepared for a response like that. Alear laughs again, and the melodic sound makes his heart skip a beat. The dragon’s thumb begins to trace soft patterns along Diamant’s hand. He thinks he might finally understand the phrase “butterflies in your stomach” as he lies here, hanging off Alear’s every word and move.

Alear shifts ever so slightly closer, until his face leans directly over Diamant’s own. Distantly, he wonders how the dragon doesn’t hear his thundering heartbeat. Or maybe he does. It’s the last clear thought he has before Alear’s mouth meets his own, and nothing else matters.

Alear kisses him gently, heartachingly sweet, and his mind goes blissfully empty. The paperwork that had been nagging at him in the back of his mind was forgotten, his focus directed solely to the task at hand. With his free hand, Diamant’s fingers find their way to brush along Alear’s jaw, earning a satisfied sigh from the other man.

The moment is brief. Alear pulls away much to soon after he started it, Diamant’s hand hovering in the air as he backs away. But it’s done the trick. His thoughts are now of Alear alone, and the thrumming affection in his chest.

“Rest now,” Alear murmurs, leaning down to place one more soft kiss against his temple. As a final bribe to get Diamant to stay, he worms his way down besides him, resting his head against Diamant’s chest.

Diamant unthinkingly responds in kind, the hand not currently occupied by Alear’s wrapping around around the other man. It’s easy. Natural. Like breathing. He finds that sleep, when they are like this, actually comes easy too.

Diamant’s last thought before he slips into the comforting lull of slumber being that hopes they’ll do this again soon.

#dialear #diamant x alear #alear x diamant #i plan to fix this up and post it on ao3 at some point #I just got in my feelings writing this a bit and wanted to push it out HDJFKDMD I’m sorry.#this uses male alear btw #FLUFF THERAPY YIPPEE :’D

Ring-ing in a New Era

When I first saw the trailer for Fire Emblem: Engage, I was sceptical at first. After all, it looked like a clear departure from what had come before. The previous titles, Three Houses, Fates and Awakening had taken the franchise in a new direction and Engage appeared like it was retreading familiar ground with its striking visual style and return of the weapon triangle.

What struck me, though, was the character design. Especially for main character Alear. Both red and blue hair for the protagonist? What kind was of new madness was this? Of course, the internet jumped onto it, nicknaming poor Alear Colgate-kun. And thus the memes began.

Little did I know the extent of the depravity within the game itself in the form of support conversations. In fact, Alear was probably the sanest character out of the entirety of the new cast.

But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Fire Emblem: Engage released at the start of 2023 with fairly average hype. While the reviews were decent, it wasn't exactly mindblowing as the series returned to its roots to celebrate the vast history of the franchise. After the heights that was Three Houses, Intelligent Systems dialled back on the sombre and serious storytelling. Instead, they provided a somewhat cliche world popping with its vibrant anime aesthetic and a ton of quirky characters looking to save the world from an evil Fell Dragon.

The game starts with Alear racing through the halls, their allies holding back a horde of the Corrupted. It isn't long before they confront Sombron and strike the villain down. Everything then turns white and before the player knows it, a thousand years have passed as Alear wakes up to their three stewards: Vander, Framme and Clanne. Overjoyed by the Divine One's awakening, they bring Alear up to speed about what has happened during their slumber before rushing them to meet the Divine Dragon Lumera.

On the way to Lythos, however, our four heroes confront one of the Corrupted and learn that Sombron has returned!

So begins Alear's journey to put a stop to the Fell Dragon. During their quest, they recruit the princes and princesses of the four other nations in the world, along with their retainers, to build up their own personal army. As well as the Emblem Rings that were held in trust, each of them hosting one hero from previous games including Marth, Celica, Sigurd, Leif, Lyn, Roy, Eirika (although her twin brother Ephraim also makes the occasional appearance), Ike, Micaiah, Lucina, Corrin and Byleth. Together, the twelve Emblem Rings would be able to grant immeasurable power to whoever wielded all 12 every thousand years.

But while the plot was the weakest portion of the game, with an odd time-travel gimmick in one of the later chapters, and Sombron's motivation for destroying the world merely because he wanted to reunite with his very first Emblem and returning to his home world, I didn't mind it too much. Especially when the game itself didn't take itself too seriously.

Honestly, the amount of times Alear seemingly just stood there in an empty hall as the enemies nicked their Emblem rings just had me shaking my head. Then, of course, there was the ending of Chapter 10, and the beginning of Chapter 11, where Alear was whining at Veyle to return their Emblem Rings gosh darn it!

"Give me back the Emblem Rings!"

The temper tantrum throwing was just so silly. I couldn't help but chuckle.

But imagine if Veyle did do just that? It would have been such an easy cop out to have the game end because the villain decided to acquiesce to the protagonist's demand.

And while the plot needed some work, what I loved the most about the writing were the bond and support conversations with the various Emblem Rings and other members of my party. Of note was the fact that a few of the Emblem Rings seemed to recognise Lady Anna (probably because of the many other merchants also named Anna in the series).

What threw me the most, though, was how fruity some of the other conversations were. Like Alfred and Boucheron's C support. Sure, Alfred was quirky because he was obsessed with muscles but one had to wonder if the way he admired my poor sweet Boucheron's natural physique as some sort of sexual harassment. Although, the C support conversation with Bunet also had me spit out the water I was drinking with all the double entendres that were hidden within.

Seriously.

GET. A. ROOM!

The fact that Alfred's A support with fellow musclehead Etie only cemented the fact in my mind that Alfred was clearly batting for the other side as they laughed off their very platonic workout buddy feels even though Alfred's mother, the Queen, had made Etie his retainer solely because she thought Etie might be Firene's future monarch.

Don't even get me started on Etie and Goldmary! Or Chloe and Merrin!

True, many of the support conversations were primarily focused on each character's individual quirks and playing those up, but I couldn't help but chuckle along as Timerra forced both Diamant and Ivy to start singing.

If Engage still had paired endings, I definitely know who I would have wanted to end up together. At the very least, though, my male Alear was able to live out his dreams with the caring bear of a man, Diamant. Theirs was a romance I started shipping right from the very start with their C support. Chloe came a close second.

From a combat perspective, Engage included many staple favourites such as the return of the weapon triangle. While I didn't feel like using an axe against a sword during the player phase detracted too much from dealing damage to the enemy, being able to break the enemy to prevent them from retaliating was a nice touch. It also brought in some strategy beyond rushing blindly ahead with my most powerful units.

Of course, just because a sword wielder could break an axe wielder meant nothing when Louis was on the field. It was great to learn that dealing zero damage against my high defense great knight meant that he could not be broken. And so, equipped with a greataxe, Louis could decimate the enemies around him with aplomb as they all tried to put him down.

The Engage feature also brought in new elements to the game, granting access to weapons my units might not normally wield. This was a welcome relief after learning that cavaliers could be classified as sword, lance or axe without the ability to wield any other weapon except the one weapon type. This came as quite a shock when I tried equipping a sword for Amber to use, only to learn he couldn't use it!

On the plus side, no weapon durability this time round! So, there was no need to waste too much money buying new equipment every two or three maps for my favourite characters because the weapon I used broke!

Huzzah!

AND weapons could be refined and engraved to deal additional damage!

Engage brought in many new features that scratched my itch for a good turn-based role-playing game and it did so with much aplomb. Additionally, it also included a few fun minigames like fishing (although I'm convinced the sit-up training montage was designed to give everyone RSI). But more than that, it also included some of the most unhinged and fruity characters I've ever seen! And I love Intelligent Systems all the more for it.

After watching all four seasons of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series, I'm here for all the shenanigans.

BRING ON THE UNHINGE!

What's that Bunet, you want to go taste the pillars of the castle? Yes! Go for it! Don't let me stop you!

And Framme, continue doing your very best to fangirl. It's not CREEPY at all. Nope. No sirree.

Oh no. Rosado and Merrin are having a duel over which style is better? Cool versus cute? Sure, go ahead. I'd like to know who'd win too.

Etie. Goldmary. Why would anyone close the lights just to hold hands? We all KNOW something more is going on there. Don't deny it.
